Parambrata Chatterjee reacts to Anurag Kashyap calling mainstream Bengali cinema ‘lousy’: ‘We have stopped paying attention to it…’ | – The Times of India

Parambrata Chatterjee recently reacted to Anurag Kashyap’s comment bengali cinema ‘shoddy.’ The actor also expressed his views on the decline of mainstream Bengali cinema and highlighted that its health is closely linked to the success of alternative cinema.
In Screen Live, Parambrata explained that the decline of mainstream commercial Bengali cinema has affected the success of other types of films, as any type of cinema needs a large audience to flourish. He pointed out that in 2011, while Bengali cinema was experiencing a resurgence with filmmakers like Srijit Mukherjee and Kaushik Ganguly making popular films, the industry unexpectedly turned away from making Bengali entertainment on a large scale.
Srijit Mukherjee highlighted that filmmakers should focus on making films that reflect the essence of Bengal rather than relying on remakes of South Indian films. He pointed to the success of films like Kantara and Pushpa 2 in the South as examples and suggested that Bengal needs its own unique films of that kind.
Srijit Mukherjee and Parambrata Chatterjee’s latest film, Shotyi Bole Shotyi Kichhu Nei, is currently running in theatres. It is an official adaptation of the 1989 Hindi film Ek Ruka Hua Faisla, which itself was a remake of the American classic 12 Angry Men. The film stars Kaushik Ganguly, Kaushik Sen, Ritwik Chakraborty, Anirban Chakraborty, Ananya Chatterjee and Arjun Chakraborty in lead roles.
